Overview

This node enables creating a Project Charge in Autotask via its REST API. It is useful for automating the addition of charges related to projects, such as billing or cost tracking entries, directly from workflows. For example, when a new expense or time entry needs to be recorded against a project, this node can create the corresponding charge record automatically.

Properties

Name Meaning
Fields Defines the specific fields and their values to set on the Project Charge being created. This uses a resource mapper to allow flexible mapping of input data to the Project Charge fields.

Output

JSON

  • id - The unique identifier of the created Project Charge record.
  • fields - The detailed data of the created Project Charge as returned by the Autotask API.

Dependencies

  • Requires an Autotask API credential (API key or token) to authenticate requests to the Autotask REST API.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the Autotask API credentials are correctly configured and have permissions to create Project Charges.
  • Verify that all required fields for creating a Project Charge are provided in the 'Fields' mapping; missing required fields will cause API errors.
  • Check for network connectivity issues or API rate limits if requests fail or time out.
  • Error messages from the API typically indicate missing or invalid fields; review the error details to adjust the input mapping accordingly.
